Thw "War Clock" counts the dead in armed conflicts around the globe.
Armed warfare managed to rack up 100 million dead during the 20th century,
which translates to about two dead every minute. The clock was reset to 100 million
on the eve of the new millennium and has been counting deaths at that rate
ever since.

Signs in the trenches of World War I showed the way to company headquarters,
important points etc. Mostly the sections of trench were named after nearby
villages or landmarks. Obviously someone thought that more descriptive names
were called for.
